to talk about
When you are drafting your speech, you should know what
the purpose of your speech is. This is different from your
topic and is more about if you intend to sell something,
persuade an audience or inform people. Whatever your
purpose is, you should write your speech with that purpose
in mind. Every part of your speech should serve your
purpose, and if it doesn't, you should consider if it's
necessary. This is a good way to reduce confusion in your
audience and to keep your speech full of important
statements.

Most people know that you should practice when you are
going to be doing some public speaking, but its importance
can't be understated. Practicing can help you ensure you
have a speech or presentation that takes up the right
amount of time. It can help you find if there are any words
or phrases that are more difficult to say than they were to
write. It can help you make sure your visuals are helpful and
work with the flow of the speech. You should practice as
you're writing, once you've written your speech and after
you've prepared any visuals.

10. ONLY USE HELPFUL VISUALS
Some people think you need visuals to
go along with everything you say in your
speech, but a good rule to follow is to
only use visuals that help your speech.
Showing slides that just repeat
information you're saying in writing can
distract from your speaking and doesn't
add anything valuable for the audience.
Anything you use visually should have a
value and purpose, otherwise it's best to
use no visual at all.
11. CHECK THE AUDIO EQUIPMENTS
Once you've arrived at your speech location and
you have an understanding of the setup, you'll
want to prepare your audio equipment. If a
microphone is necessary, it's likely there's
someone there who is in charge of making sure
everything is working, but it's important to test it
with you specifically. This helps make sure you're
audible throughout the venue and if the
microphone is a clip-on or anything similar that it
can be adjusted as needed. This is an important
step for making sure your speech goes smoothly,
so it's best not to skip it.
12. FOCUS ON THE AUDIENCE
When you are preparing your speech and when
you're giving your speech, it's important to focus
on your audience. Your speech should be tailored
to the group you're speaking to, their interest in
your topic and the general level of knowledge
they have about the topic. You might lose the
interest of your audience if you are covering the
topic in a way that is too simple or too
complicated. When you are giving the speech, you
should make regular eye contact with the
audience and see how they respond to certain
parts of your speech, like jokes.
13. END STRONG
Your audience's final impression of your
speech and its content, value and influence is
in how you end your speech. Your ending
should be extremely strong, often the
strongest part of your speech, although it
may be equal to your opening. Depending on
the purpose of your speech, you may want
your audience to feel like they need to take
action, learn more about a topic or even buy
what you're selling. Your ending is the best
time to reinforce that call to action and
encourage people to fulfill the purpose of the
speech.
